I wouldnt want to be on that boat.Did you use wax resist.Very dramatic painting.Well done.Best regards Paul.

Many thanks, Paul, I used a little wax resist, but also quite a bit of masking fluid, which I decided to leave on the paper.

Hi Colleen I returned for a leisurely look through your gallery I like your delicate colourful style...I like what I see in your gallery...well done.

Many thanks for the compliment and taking the time to look, Phil. It's the first time this painting has been described as delicate! I do try my best best to keep the washes clear though. Many thanks again!

I was struck by the same thought as Paul Beattie. I had my share of that stuff thanks! A very lively, dramatic treatment Colleen. Nice edgy style. Thanks too for your comments, I left a note for you on the page. Thanks again. John

Hi John, My thoughts went somewhere a long the lines of...I don't want to be on this boat... at the time too. I must have had a little sanity I was a child at the time. Anyway, painting this was a good way to exhorcise the past:) Have you been on this boat then?! Many thanks for your kind comments. Will take another look at yours now, best wishes colleen

Very individualistic style Coleen, fresh and vibrant, automatically drawing you into the painting, very well done. Thank you for your kind comments on my painting, and yes, it is watercolour. Regards, Bill.

Many thanks for your kind compliments, Bill, best wishes colleen
